    I have no opinion on how good or bad his products are. Consumer Reports, last time I looked, said "meh."

    I just saw an ad of him hawking his book, where he talks about his drug problems, and recovery from the lowest depths of despair.

    Good for him.

    But...

    In the ad he says that he "mathematically proves that God exists."

    ORLY?

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I don't think I'll ever purchase a pillow made by the My Pillow Guy because I sleep just fine with my average, everyday pillow.

          As far as TV pitchmen go he’s fairly sleepy. The power of myth is what makes it popular, if you believe it is so. I suspect it’s competent. I know someone who swears by it. I personally have a two pillow preference, a softer one to lay on and a firmer one as a side prop.

              I bought two of his supposedly firm pillows. Now they are relegated to between the knees pillows. Ugh.

              But I am so picky about pillows. I only like the old feather pillows with the striped ticking that get really cold and have a certain feel. Been that way since I was five or so.

                I recently bought his mattress topper, I like it OK.

                He threw in 2 free pillows, I like them OK.

                When it comes to pillows, I'm pretty easy to please.

                    Well, he drags them onto the floor, has his way with them, and leaves them for dead. So, I suppose "make love" might be an overstatement.

                      Yeah, there are a couple of those claims, the most famous probably being from Kurt Gödel, who was arguably the most important mathematician of the 20th century.

                      Usually these proofs make all kinds of questionable assumptions and interpret the word "God" in an extremely loose way.

                          Believe me, whatever interpretation you believe in, it is way closer to what most people mean when they say "God" then what those logicians came up with.
